Oakland Veg Week invites our local communities to experience the many personal & global benefits of plant-based foods. Oakland Veg's mission is to introduce the Oakland community to the many benefits of a plant-based diet, for our health, animals, and the environment. We coordinate Oakland Veg Week in the spring, and local outreach events, food giveaways, cooking classes and more all year long.
